Dearest Carol;What wonderful images and Haiku(^_^)v I tried to put both of them into Japanese; as is the reverse, the feeling won't be translated perfectly. I LOVE the part "nature's light for you fellow travelers of life"

LOVE your wintery shots! The snow by the sea is so beautiful! And....here we go again - it's going to be a crazy end of the week! My brother is supposed to fly in today...so hoping his flight makes it and we can get snowed in together tomorrow! (if you want to try linking up again, it seems to be working if you choose a file from your computer, and not a web file.) Thanks for visiting!

That's a sweet little Mighty Wonder tree poling it head out of the snow! I love the way the snow is piled up on your Rurality photo, and the blue of the shadows. The growth looks like cotton bolls ready to be picked!

Great icicle shot. When we had some ice here last week I took a lot of shots of the small icicles hanging off a table and chairs. I knew it would be gone soon and I also knew that it would be the only chance I got to get icicles.

Such a beautiful post! Knowing that there is more snow on the way here and that you have continued prospects I am wishing you warmth and love this Valentine's Day from all whose lives you gently touch!! Cathy

Hello dear Carol, Loved all that you had to offer here today. I especially enjoyed your unique snowflake haiku... Valentine's day is always hard for me and this year it was sweet. I bought myself red roses and I was able to receive some heart felt gifts from friends. A new opening to life's path for me... much love to you this heart day and every day!
